"AJ Styles Is Every Bit As Good As Shawn Michaels" - Kurt Angle

[JoogJoint]

I'm just being real, breh. I know it's not a fair judgement because HBK being putting it in, on a bigger stage, but even then, I still don't feel like AJ could deliver as a superstar on HBK's level.

AJ's already a world renowned pro-wrestler and the WWE would just open up even more doors for him to the casuals.

By the time AJ retires, he's set as a well respected pro-wrestler. The way his progress has been within less than a year just shows you how much confidence he has in AJ and quite frankly so do the fans.

I never got the Savage hype on here

i don't think highly of HBK as a superstar, nor the stuff that youre listing. he was always channel-changer material.

hbk is a great worker, i'll give you that. but aj styles is a better worker.

i don't see how HBK delivered on a superstar level, when he helped to nearly drive the wwf out of business.

the buzz from styles' title win is already a bigger deal than anything HBK.

nikka shut the fukk up.
Randy Savage is one of my All Time Greats, But AJ is a better Wrestler.
And this theme shyts on Randy's any day of the week.



nikka said the jumping bomb angels are better the Styles, Hero, Omega, Okada. I should slap the shyt out of your mother.

He loves to squeeze in a Jumping Bomb Angels reference whenever possible.

You mean when WCW's momentum was taking off? You can't act like AJ never left a "sinking ship" himself, that excuse doesn't hold up in this regard. There was so much controversy happening around that time, WWE is lucky they made it out of that, and Rock and Austin were booked and delivered perfectly in their respective roles.

You nyggas think John Cena is a great worker. You got to be fukking kidding me and then act like Shawn is the BEST OF ALL TIME? Crackhead statements. A nonseller and a goofy overseller can craft like Savage did at WM 3, 5, and 7? fukk outta here. LOL. Get real.

Cena has more classic matches than Savage tbh.

EXACTLY...

Muthafukkas can't name 10 CLASSIC Savage matches. Not saying he doesn't have dope matches. But he isn't some super Elite worker. His matches were majority double axe handles.

 

[R=G]

Cena has more classic matches than Savage tbh.

John Cena has two stand out matches everyone might know..the Rock match at WM 28 and the RVD match at One Night Stand because of the chants and cussing in his direction.

What you said about Savage is of the dumbest posts ever. Like saying Drake has more classic material Dr Dre, Pac, Biggie....fukking insane. Something a know nothing would say.

The Mega Powers angle is 10x bigger than a ratings disaster like Angle, Cena, Shawn...any of those bozos. Those guys are nobodies...they are tainted stars from a lackluster era. Guy carried roided up idiots to classic encounters and left Flair in the dust at WM 8.

Shawn Michaels is the definition of a loser in pro wresting. Sid, botching promo, Vicious was a bad worker..that's what u all say yet the fans spat on Michaels for him.

Angle was just a side character in the Rock/Austin Era with one good super push. Matches lacked psychology and was full of spots. He got good at copying Benoit by Rumble 03 obviously. Yeah.much better than a guy who set the blueprint for telling stories on the big stage like Savage. Savage had Los Angeles fans crying at WM 7 and you're comparing these goofballs who were rejected by fans on several levels to him? Lmao.

Yeah...Angle vs Edge for a haircut is better than Savage/Steamboat..lol.

Saying Styles is better than Michaels aint saying much. His top matches drew horribly and put the WWF in a runt. That's why no one cared when he retired or asked for him to come back. Overrated, overpraised, and was never worth the ticket price. Not even above Goldberg historically.

I always find it hilarious the shawn critics that do the whole "He was on top when the business was going down" yadda yadda shtick

First of all nobody was competing w/ the NWO and nobody was coming close to how hot of an item they were. Let's not even forgot this at a time Bret took his hiatus and before SCSA , it was just HBK and bums vs. the NWO/Flair/Sting etc, give me a break

Now back to Styles, what happened when he was the face of the TNA? I love Styles but he is no HBK in terms of charisma,promo and overall performing

Well he called himself the Showstopper. I guess it meant that people stopped watching the show when he was in the spotlight.

What?

 

[Kill Dat Noize]

well aj styles isn't half the professional wrestling superstar that shawn michaels is so if the ratings were bad while shawn was on top i shudder to imagine what they might have been during that time had aj styles been on top.

 

[StatUS]

nikkas really in here defending Shawn tanking when on top, yet today every guy they hate gets blamed for Raw's failures
